Any ideas on what the first e-mail is going to entail? Essentially, I'm asking if we can expect to get cigars in January :cbig: lol.

Like most here, I signed up as soon as the new website went live. I recall a recent interview where Pete described the concept behind this "fan-club", so to speak. (There will actually be two different and distinct parts to this.) Apparently, experimental smokes and prototypes of new production sticks will be what is primarily offered through this program. There might also be some regularly produced things too. This is to reward the devoted, hard-core Tat fans and will fall under the "Saints" part of the club. It sounds like this is open to anyone who signs up. The "Sinners" side of things will also be very limited production sticks and experimental things but these will come from a single farm in Nic. (This is a completely different property than Pepin's.) In order to join this, I believe you'd need to be a member of the "Saints" program but also make a contribution of some sort (not sure if this is strictly monetary or not) to be eligible for the the "Sinners" side of things. Pete mentioned that this would be his way of giving back to the local community where this farm is located. Supposedly, this property produces terrific tobacco but is in a poor, rural area.

I wonder if we'll get a guide for the prototype smokes, so that if we love them, we'll be able get more when/if they are released.

This sounds like alot of fun.

Last I talked to Pete it is still being worked on.

I believe he said at least a few months.

But I will say this, you want to join the site.

Signed up and interested to see what this whole thing is going to be about. Tatuaje can generate a hype machine like none other huh?
Only Apple generates better hype.

And guess what, you signed up last night in your sleep and you didn't even know it lol ;)

Sure, but don't blame Pete for this one...there were quite a few BOTL (including the Dallas Contingent) that told him he would be stupid NOT to do something like this...

I agree... talk about a great way to build brand loyalty! Not to mention reward the people who are really passionate about the cigars you make. Lastly, it's something to rub in the faces of those who aren't "in the know." lol jk on the last one.
